So if you love the Leone spaghetti westerns, -especially Lee Van Cleef- the Old Man Hawkeye issue 2 preview that was posted earlier today should be right up your alley.

I recognized the scene the creative team were paying almost direct homage to immediately and squeed with delight. Pretty awesome to see references to the movies which got me into comics (in an indirect way) finally make it into a storyline. Much less this one.

Same for me. And, I must be sincere... it being illustrated by Allred has me squee'ing. Talk about an artist being born to work on a specific character.

And oh my did he get left in a bad predicament. Possibly thousands of years in a cocoon?

I wasn't terribly impressed with X-Men Red as it literally restarts the trope of X-Person talks to the government to get the trust they'll never get and people still shun mutants despite all the other super beings on the planet and a bad public display by a villain makes it worse.

I didn't think I'd care for Avengers No Surrender but it grew on me and it's a Grandmaster story and there's a previous Grandmaster introduced.

You're correct, Allred is perfect for Marvel cosmic.

I'm not sure where I stand on Tales of Suspense as it seems like an Infinity War tie-in without calling it one. Story and character-wise it's not bad (definitely padding to fit five issues), but Travel Foreman's art is all over the place (not a fan of his ape-like, exaggerated faces.) I'll stop with this month's 102.

The Marvel character Captain Midlands appear in the Wisdom and Captain Britain and MI13 comics and his shield is supposed to be made of the fictive 'nanominium gloss'. I have looked after information about what 'nanominium gloss' is and what Powers it has but can't find anything. Do anybody know about it and can tell me?

Just read the last year and a half or so of Invincible Iron Man. #1-11, and 593-596, so I'm all caught up! Absolutley enjoying it so far. I love comics, but rarely have the time to catch up with them, so I dedicated the last day to doing so. Honestly, I really like RiRi. I know that might be contentious, but whatever. I can't wait to see Tony back too, and see where this arc goes.

I would say that's a ticking clock for how long Old Man Logan will be around but OLM always seemed something finite, especially since the original brand is returning.

Was listening to Fatman on Batman podcast and Grant Morrison was on and, I hadn't heard this before, but he's doing Arkham Asylum 2 at some point, probably way in the future, but it's on the docket. Didn't say much aside from having it in the future with Daimen and Bruce. I think he said, gleefully, that he's totally okay if it destroys the legacy of the original.

Speaking of old sequels, it's been over for awhile but Dark Knight III: The Master Race was pretty decent and in the end old Batman is back to being young Batman again so it's kind of a full circle for the DK era Batman. the story has always really been about Old Bruce trying to outrun time and death and he finally did it. Although the sequels are pretty unnecessary, DKIII is a okay ending. Although Miller was already saying he has a DKIV in mind...
